"I said that I don't need it," Mo Qiang tilted her head to one side and repeated. "I have never been one to chase after power. As long as my family is safe, there is nothing else that I need." If not for her husbands being bullied left and right, she would have never stepped in the lilight.
After chasing after wealth all her life in the past, Mo Qiang was no longer as excited about getting her hands on power. When she was living in her own world, she had spent years trying to get stronger and more powerful because she wanted to make her parents regret letting her go.
Now that she had died once and been given another chance to live another life, why would she do sothing so foolish as chase after power once again? She would never do it again. Because after tasting the peace that she enjoyed while living with her family, Mo Qiang realised that it was better to let go sotis.
With such a loving family, why would she chase after power?
Did she look like a fool who did not understand the risks it might co with?
When Si Ma heard her response, a part of her was filled with disbelief but upon closer look, she realised that Mo Qiang was indeed telling the truth. This woman truly had no desire to take control of the power!
Si Ma pursed her lips in silence. For the first ti in her life, she felt lost. Ever since she was a child, she had craved power —more and more power, as she never wanted to suffer in silence like she had in the past. Her mother was a small-ranking official who was later sched against by soone in the high position and ended up losing her life, leaving Si Ma to fend for herself.
Because of what happened to her mother, Si Ma worked harder than ever. She wanted to climb higher and get more power in her hands such that no one would ever be able to look down on her.
She thought that with Mo Qiang suffering the sa agony and pain as her, she would certainly have the sa desire as her. Thus, she approached Mo Qiang with the sa tactic but who would have thought that Mo Qiang would not play by the rule? Even though she was suppressed by everyone and was insulted, she truly had no intention of fighting back.
Was this woman a wimp or was she soone who was above all?
Si Ma couldn't understand what was going on inside Mo Qiang's head. She could only step back and throw out a few vicious words, "You will regret this."
After speaking she opened a temporary tortal and disappeared within it.
Once the woman was gone, Mo Xifeng narrowed her eyes and remarked, "It seems like they have gotten their hands on so illegal channel. This is the latest project that the researchers are studying but they already have it in their hands."
"They are even using it, which ans that they are not scared to let everyone know about the truth." Mo Qiang calmly rationalised. She then turned to look at Mo Xifeng and said to her, "Don't worry about it too much. Since the situation is already like this, then we might as well deal with it slowly."
On the other side, far away from the dead star, Fu Shi glanced at the woman who was kneeling in front of her; she narrowed her eyes and questioned, "You an to say that Mo Qiang refused to accept the offer that we made?"
"Thats right, your highness." Si Ma, who knelt on one knee on the floor, replied with a calm voice but inwardly, she was panicking. She knew how much this move ant to Fu Shi. Now that she had failed, there was a good chance that Fu Shi would be furious.
Sure enough, the woman banged her hand heavily on the replica of the throne that she had created. She bit her lower lip and muttered furiously, "That damn woman! I am giving her face but that woman just does not take seriously, does she?"
No one dared to say anything.
But that only made Fu Shi even more angry. She glared at the two won in front of her and stated coldly, "You all are nothing but useless. To think that you couldn't even deal with sothing so simple. One couldn't enchant Mo Qiang into serving and the other one simply couldn't kill that woman before she turned the situation of the Imperial Star around.
Now that Mo Qiang had beco a fishbone stuck in her throat, which she couldn't swallow or spit, Fu Shi was furious.
She looked at the two won and stated coldly, "I don't care. Do whatever you want but I either want that woman dead or under my command!"
"We understand!"
Wei Yunrou and Si Ma bowed and accepted the command of Fu Shi as they got to their feet and then left the room. Once the two of them stepped out, Wei Yunrou turned and glanced at Si Ma before saying to her, "I thought that you would be able to do it, but it seems like your wit also has certain limits."
Si Ma turned to look at Wei Yunrou with a casual look on her face. "I think so too; then why don't you tell what to do? I believe that you have an idea, Madam Wei. after all, you have successfully entrapped Mo Qiang so many tis, didn't you?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wei Yunrou's expression turned sombre. She glared at Si Ma before turning around on her feet and heading away. Si Ma watched her leave with a sneer and then walked over to where her aide was standing and then said to her, "Let's go; we will attack another dinsion under the Imperial Star."
The more dinsions she conquered, the more powerful she would beco.
One day, when Fu Shi was sitting on that throne, she would show Mo Qiang the truth about the need for power.
